Nightshade 08-27-07, 06:02 PM	I don't own Unearthed Arcana and I could use some sample Flaws for a new pc I'm making. The srd doesn't have too many. Can anyone help me out?

JarionSilverblades 08-27-07, 07:58 PM	Here are a few Flaws I created for my Campaing Monk Flaws Devotion to Arms: You take great pride in knowing how to use weapons specifically designed for monks. You consider Unarmed strikes beneath you, and have allowed your training to atrophy. Prerequisite: Proficiency with all Monk weapons. Effect: You suffer a -4 penalty on all rolls made with Unarmed Strikes, and all weapon not on the Monk’s weapon list (this penalty stacks with the penalty from using weapons you are not proficient with). Unarmed Devotion: You prefer to face your opponents in hand to hand combat, and consider it to be dishonorable to use weapons. Effect: You suffer a -4 penalty to hit with anything other then Unarmed Strikes. Rogue Flaws Obnoxious: You are unpleasant, repugnant, and pushy. Effect: You suffer a -4 penalty on all Charisma based checks and gain no benefit from flanking. Sneak: You only feel comfortable fighting from the shadows. Prerequisite: Sneak Attack. Effect: You suffer a -2 penalty on attack rolls made while not performing a Sneak Attack. Swashbuckler Flaws Arrogant: You believe you’re opponents are less skilled then they truly are. Effect: You suffer a -2 penalty on initiative checks and a -2 penalty to Armor Class. Duelist Pride: You come off as obnoxious and boisterous when dealing with others. Effect: You suffer a -4 penalty on all Bluff, Diplomacy, and Sense Motive checks.
Nightshade 08-27-07, 09:16 PM	I am making a Ranger 2 / Monk 2 / Fighter 6 / Agile Fighter 10 (this is a homebrew prc). I am going for a super agile, mobile warrior that is a generalist weapons user. I wield a flail, Guisarme, and fists (composite longbow for ranged). My flaw feats were going to be Improved Initiative and Quickdraw. The campaign begins at 6th level, I think. Here's my build: F- Improved Initiative F- Quickdraw 1- Dodge H- Mobility R1- Track, Favored Enemy (???), Wild Empathy R2- Two-weapon Fighting 3/M1 Combat Expertise, Improved Unarmed Strike, Improved Grapple, Flurry of blows 4/M2 Combat Reflexes, Evasion 5/F1- Spring Attack 6/F2- Improved Trip, Elusive Target* 7- ------- 8/F4- Power Attack 9/AF1- Fast Movement, Improved Reaction (+2 init), Cleave 10/AF2- Whirlwind Attack 11/AF3- Uncanny Dodge 12/AF4- Improved Disarm, Powerful Charge* 13/AF5- Improved Evasion 14/AF6- Imp Bull Rush 15/AF7- Improved Uncanny Dodge, Leap Attack* 16/AF8- Shock Trooper* 17/AF9- Enhanced Mobility 18/AF10- Imp. Sunder, Combat Brute* 19/F5- -------- 20/F6- Mageslayer* * The DM has not yet ruled on what books are available. It may be that this is an only core campaign (no completes, no phb2). If so, then I drop the * feats and take Mounted feats and Archery feats: mounted Combat, ride by attack, point blank shot, precise shot, and rapid shot. I was thinking of a Flaw such as Hunted (by some evil organization) and ????. Quickdraw isn't such a powerful feat that the Flaw should be soo bad but suggestions?

A fellow party member going first does not bother you. proud warrior-There are times when every warrior should worry, but instead of focusing more on a fight when you draw attention to yourself, you believe if they had to bring more enemies then they must be the ones in trouble. penalty:anytime you are flanked the enemy gets a +4 instead of a +2
